Tretchikoff & Me
Posted by Samantha Laura Kaye in Editorial, Gallery Exhibitions on June 28, 2010
For those of you who weren’t at the opening and have not yet seen it, get yourself over to Salon 91 on Kloof Street and check out the Tretchikoff & Me exhibition of vintage Tretchikoff prints, juxtaposed against the contemporary responses (ceramic, printmaking and photographic) of local South African artists. Niklas Zimmer is the featured photographer, and I painted the beautiful ladies he featured in his photographs using a combination of MAC and Chanel concealers and oil-based Kryolan face-paints. I achieved the “water droplets” with tubes of Mac’s clear lipglass. Far more impressive in real life – I suggest you take a wander down Kloof Street and have a look for yourself.
Our Team consisted of:
Photographer: Niklas Zimmer
Lighting Design: Yotam Sandak

I kept the eyes neutral toned, and sculpted them with texture, applied some individual false lashes (I find the individual lashes look more natural as they lack the “spine” visible with a full false lash) to bring out the shape of the eyes and then matched the lipstick to the wig with MAC’s Amplified Lipstick “Girl About Town”

An additional post of the Robert Miller/ Chelsea L fresh faced bridal look. I sculpted her face with texture rather than lines.
Robert and I went for some “Bridal shots”. Rob and Cally and I were testing with Chelsea L from Infinity – Cally had a Gavin Rajah silvery, slinky, beaded wedding dress with her so we went ahead with a fresh skinned “bridal” look.

Pro Tip: When dealing with something fiddly such as petals or feathers or individual lashes use tweezers to position the object in place, check the direction of the curve of the hair/petal and hold in place until secure. Using as little glue as possible cover the tip of the lash or petal and wait for the glue to become tacky before adhering it to the skin.

Robert and I were asked to provide some fresh “mature” images for Chelsea’s book – she’s moving from “teen” to “woman” and needed her portfolio to reflect this. Cally Palmer brought this amazing canary yellow silk Gavin Rajah gown which caught the light beautifully! We kept her skin, hair and make-up very fresh and light.
